It is deeply counter to the whole very basic concept of this nation that its citizens can be taxed and then have funding withheld punitively because the person exercising the power of the presidency decides on a whim to do so.
at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

DHS official Tricia McLaughlin blatantly lies about the circumstances of Renee Good's killing: "Our law enforcement officers were outside of their vehicle trying to get their vehicle out of a snowbank." (Their vehicles were not snuck, it was 40 degrees that day ... )

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

The left has a rhetoric problem? Renee Good was labeled a domestic terrorist before any investigation at all. That’s their approach - did it in Chicago, too. And that video doesn’t show what they think it does.

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.
Trump: "I feel I won Minnesota. I think I won it all three times. Nobody has won it since Richard Nixon won it many many years ago. I won it all three times in my opinion. It's a corrupt state ... I did so well in that state. The people were crying every time after."

Shapiro: J.D. Vance is profoundly and pathetically a weak human being, and he does whatever he thinks his boss wants him to do.
What we need right now is not idiotic gaslighting from the sitting VP
He should be ashamed of himself—and he’s not. I think that speaks to the weakness of his character.
